“who will sustain you to the end, guiltless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.” 1 Corinthians 1:8 (ESV)
We often come here to be reminded that our God is actively involved in the lives of His children – us who believe and have received Jesus Christ as our Savior by faith. Today's verse is one such reminder and it is a promise from God's Word. This promise was not only for Christians living in Corinth almost 2000 years ago. It is for all Christians living today. If you are a believer in Jesus it is for you today and it is for you as long as your are living here on this earth. God is active in our lives in preparation for our time in eternity. Our verse reminds us that He is strengthening us every day to keep us strong to the end of our lives here. His purpose is to prepare us for the time we will be with Him in eternity. He wants to purify us so that we will be blameless when our life on earth is over. It is His doing, not ours, and we are called to have faith, believing the promises He has given to us. Let's rejoice that we do not have to face the hours, days, and years ahead alone, God is with us and He will sustain us to the end.
